Application filed December 13, 1907. Seria1No.'406,369.

To all whom itmwy concern:

Be it known that I, SUSIE "MCLAUGHLIN,

laundry irons which are capable of adjust ment and are adapted to be heated.

Reference will be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification and wherein like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, in which:

Figure 1 is a side elevation of a hollow iron, parts being broken away in section, Fig. 2 is a similar View of a modified form of the invention. Fig. 3 is a side elevation of still another form of the invention.

In Fig. 1, 1 designates the base, 2 a vertical central standard thereon, to which is swiveled at 3 a hollow arm 4:. This arm 4 is substantially horizontal and the swiveled portion thereof'extends downwardly at right angles thereto, permitting the arm 4.- to be swung to any position in a horizontalplane. Pivoted or hinged'to said arm 4 is another section or'extension 5, the said hinge or pivot being designated by numeral 6 and the latter permits the arm section to be swung in a vertical plane. The end of the section 5 is bent upwardly at right angles as .at 7 and upon this angular ortion or end is arranged the air mixer 8 of type. The extreme end of the portion 7 is provided with acircular or disk shaped burner 9 having peripheral openings therein at which the gas burns. The burner and air mixer are spaced apart and upon the stem 7 between the two is swiveled the iron 10. The iron is preferably egg-shaped or elongated and is hollow and provided with vent openings 11. The burner 9 is located within the iron and bears thereagainst to prevent the same from wabbling. At the opposite end, the arm is provided with a horizontal pipe extension in communication with the interior thereof and this pipe extension is provided with a right-angular vertical portion 14, upon the upper end of which is a smaller iron 15 beneath which is the circular burner 16 and air mixer-17 therefor. Valves 18 are provided in the pipe extension and approved between the same is a nipple 19 towhich the gas supply pipe is attached. Oneof these valvescontrols the supply of gas to the burner 9, while the other governs the sup-' ply to burner 16. Bythis construction, it will be seen, that the whole device can be swung on swivel 3 to any position in a horizontal plane, and that the iron 10 may also be turned to any position in a horizontal plane independently, and that the iron 10 may also be swung vertically upon its pivot or hinge 6. I

In the modified form illustrated in Fig. 2, 21 indicates the base, 22 the vertical post thereof, to the upper end of which at 23 is swiveled an arm 24 similar to that of.

plied through nipple 27. Upon the fi'ee end of section 26 is arranged a solid iron 28, the end of said section being swiveled in said iron as designated by numeral 29. Beneath the iron and mounted on the section 26 is a circular burner 30 having an air mixer 31. In this form, the smaller iron 32 is mounted vertically 011 the arm 24 and is provided with an underlying burner 33 and air mixer 34:. On opposite sides of the supply nipple 27 are valves 35, one being provided for each burner.

In Fig. 3, 51 designates the base, the post thereof to which is swiveled an arm 5% having an extension 55 hinged thereto at 56.- Upon the end ofthe extension 55 is swiveled a large fiat iron 57 within which is arranged the burner as in Fig. 1, an air mixer 58 being provided therefon- The gas is fed through nipple 59 having a valve 60.

Having fully described the invention,

what is claimed as new and useful and de-.

sired to be secured by Letters Patent, is:

1. In a device of the character described, a standard, a horizontal hollow arm swiveled thereto for horizontal movement, an extension pivoted or hinged to said arm for movement in a vertical plane, the end of said extension being bent up at right angles thereright-angular depending portion swiveled to I said standard to permit the arm to swing horizontally, a hollow extension hinged to said arm for movement in a vertical plane, the outer end of said extension being pro- Vided with an upwardly extending rightangular stem an air mixer thereon, a 1101- low iron arranged above the air mixer, said stem passing through the iron, and a burner 10 on the extreme end of said stem and arranged within the iron and bearing throughout one of its faces against said iron, said iron being swiveled upon the said stem.

In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.

SUSIE MCLAUGHLIN.
